I think the meaning of it was that the sharks will be dead at the end of game 4.

I don't think it was the dead shark that some fan threw on the ice that was bad luck for the Sharks. I think it was all the dead Sharks that Ron Wilson threw on the ice towards the end of the second period and at the end of the game.

I really dont think throwing a SHARK on the ice during a SHARKS game is 'copying' us... Come on. Who really cares? Also, who cares if it's dead? Are all the octopi put onto the ice at the Joe still alive?

The ice throwing thing has seen quite a few re-hashes, but none of them usually stick. Wonder if this one will or not. Basing off the way San Jose finished the game, my guess is no.

I just thought of something though: It would be funny if a whole group of people hauled in a full sized shark and heeved it onto the ice. I wonder how they'd manage to get if off the ice though.

Maybe a Wings fan should get a little one like the one thrown on the ice last night, and then as someone else mentioned, put a noose around the neck and throw it on the ice. See how the Fishies like that one.

I'm sure you all saw it. After Cheechoo's goal, someone tossed a dead shark onto the ice in the shark tank.What were your reactions? It seemed a little silly/ironic to toss a dead symbol of your team on the ice...dont ya' think? I guess they dont know the history behind the octopus.

The Red Wings have adopted the octopus as a mascot, and that's always been dead. The only difference is that it was after the fact. As for history, they could have thrown a stop sign on the ice. It's about as closely related, plus it's red. If the Pavilion starts serving shark sushi, then I'll take issue.
